Cannot Create Link in Acrobat

I'm accustomed to  being able to right-click icons that I have placed in my PDFs and find a choice labeled 'Create Link'. And  when I click that I get a dialog asking me to specify the link's details. Now, however, on two separate PCs (one of which has an Acrobat installed for its first time this very day). when I right click any of my icons and choose the Create Link option that appears, nothing happens. (Even though I'm not using Rich Medla, I put that as  one of my topics in order to  alert people who're knowledgeable in this general topic., though I have the imprssion that the problem has a deeper cause.)

@PeytonT on my end, if I want to 'Create a Link,' I need to be using the 'Edit a PDF,' stage, and then I was able to 'right-click' and get the 'Create a Link.'  


I am guessing maybe previously, the versions before had this? And with the recent update, it removed that feature. I can see that being a great feature versus going into the 'Edit a PDF' Tool stage!
